Derek is still lying on the ground, bleeding. Chloe pulls back a horrified Ellie as Gary proceeds to point his gun at April

"My name ... My name is April kepner. I'm 28 years old. I ... I was born on April 23 in o-in Ohio. I'm from Columbus, Ohio. Um...

" Run. "

Derek is panting and Gary points his gun at him again.

"Oh, Mr. Clark ... Mr. Clark ... "

Gary sees a SWAT team entering through the main entrance. He disappears.

Ellie and Chloe are in the supply closet.

"Derek could still be alive. " Ellie said

"We could get shot. " Chloe said as she blocks the door.

"I'm going, chlo. I am going... "

"No, no, no, no, you are not."

" Please. "

"You'll get killed, and I'm not gonna let that happen. You want to go, you gotta go through me. " Chloe said as Ellie then throws Chloe into a shelf and runs out to Derek.
